Chapter 945 Riding on the Mountain Village
Riding a mountain village.
It rides on the ridge of a large mountain, and is a mixture of wooden buildings that stretch for hundreds of meters... and brick and stone mixed together.
Looking from a distance, you can see that this is actually a complex of buildings that are randomly built using old wooden buildings and modern building materials. If you fly a drone around, you can easily find a large number of temporary buildings scattered inside, some of which are even low pseudo-tents built with plastic sheets, bamboo and mud.
Just looking at this picture, it is confirmed that there are people living here. Moreover, it doesn't look like a normal residence, it looks like a settlement set up by homeless people, or a shack for scavengers.
When the detectives arrived at the foot of the mountain, they looked at the slum area above their heads and frowned instinctively.
This kind of shantytown is like the slums in other countries, which are naturally hotbeds of crime. It is different from the so-called shantytowns in the city. Shantytowns are at least managed and have certain regulations. Shantytowns are built randomly, and fire protection and other things don’t need to be considered. There are dead-end roads everywhere. The most important thing is that people living nearby will tacitly form gangs to protect themselves. In other words, when a shantytown is formed, countless gangs will inevitably form.
The most common slum gangs in China are scavengers, whose common crimes are drug use and theft, and occasionally they also engage in human trafficking and robbery. Picking up a bottle worth ten cents will never stop them from picking up a child worth 3 yuan.
There are even more stories about shanty towns abroad, such as the famous slums in Rio de Janeiro, where not only are the people in the slums complicated, but the routes are so complicated that even elite police officers have to be cautious. One of the solutions implemented by American cities such as New York to eliminate crime is position control, attacking each building one by one.
"We don't have enough people, let's call for help." Wu Junhao came all the way from Ningtai to help. He looked up at the appearance of Qishanzhai and made a request on the spot.
Su Shanming, the captain of the Third Brigade of the Changle City Criminal Police Brigade, hesitated for a moment and said, "We have more than 100 people here. How about we go up and take a look first?"
This time, half of the police officers were from Changle City and Ningtai County. It took several minibuses to load all the people, and with all the equipment, the pressure was already very high.
Wu Junhao just shook his head and said, "If we go up the mountain now, what if the other party all runs into the mountain? Or, what if they gather together to cause trouble as we go up? The area here is much larger than expected, and the expected number of people is estimated to be much larger. Judging from the scale, there must be at least 300 to 400 people, at least twice as many as us."
Su Shanming hesitated for a moment and said, "The enemy has more people and we have fewer. Shouldn't we use the fast to defeat the slow? Otherwise, if the enemy blocks the road, how can we attack from above?"
Wu Junhao laughed when he heard this: "We are yamen runners, not soldiers. Who would want to fight them from above? We already know that the people above us are suspected of crimes. Our mission is to find a way to block the road and surround them. This is the most important thing. As for the rest, if they want to block the road, then they can do it. I won't fight them from above. If pistols can't reach us, then we can use sniper rifles. If that's still not enough, then we can use artillery. This is not the era of cold weapons. Who would want to exchange lives with them?"
Wu Junhao's words were unpleasant and Su Shanming didn't like to listen, but what Wu Junhao said was useful and Su Shanming had to listen.
To be honest, Su Shanming was also scared when he saw such a village on the ridge. He had never fought in a field battle and didn't know how to attack such a village. But he knew that with only a few dozen men under his command, if the enemy really resisted, he would rush up with pistols raised. No matter how many people died in the end, he could only trust the enemy's wisdom.
What we fear most is not the other party's head-on resistance. If it is a soft resistance, the mission will be difficult to complete.
Several cars stopped on the spot and allowed everyone to get off to rest, urinate and drink water. Wu Junhao, Jiang Yuan and others quickly discussed it and decided to adopt Plan C.
Plan A is to surround and arrest people, Plan B is to enter the village directly to arrest people, and Plan C is to surround without arresting. The main difference is actually the number of people. The geography of the Qishan village is clear. Now there are not only maps, but also satellite topographic maps. When you arrive at the scene, you can also fly drones.
However, Jiang Yuan and others were not sure how many people were in Qishan Village. Judging from the satellite images alone, many shacks were hidden among the dilapidated wooden buildings.
Only by reaching the foot of the mountain, observing from the side, and confirming with a drone can we know approximately how many people are inside.
Logistics trucks began to unload large quantities of equipment, which were then picked up by the police officers on duty.
Bulletproof vests, stab-proof suits, shields, ceramic inserts and other items are all available for use at will, and the amount shipped this time was also excessive. Handcuffs, batons, stun guns and other police equipment are for personal use only, and can only be applied for when they are no longer needed. Only firearms and bullets need to be registered, and not only the number of items must be registered, but also the number.
He Daxuan of the armed police continued to lead the team. This time they carried more shotguns and submachine guns, and only a few rifles and sniper rifles.
In addition, the Changle City Bureau also sent two squadrons of its own special police team. However, unlike what ordinary people imagine, most of the special police teams in prefecture-level cities are similar to the strong squads, with handsome equipment and beautiful postures, but in actual applications, they are at most explosion-proof police and patrol police, and rarely have the opportunity to use guns.
This attack is an opportunity for the SWAT team, but the main task is actually to take position.
More than a hundred police officers put on their equipment, got on their vehicles and headed to their respective mission locations.
In fact, it is the road down the mountain where you ride in the village.
Jiang Yuan followed most of the group and drove along the main road to the foot of the mountain. When they reached a place where they could no longer see the Qishanzhai, they got off the car and started climbing the mountain.
With him were two biologists, Su Lei from the Agricultural Research Institute and her doctoral student Qiao Shengli.
Both of them wore outdoor clothes and covered their faces to protect themselves from the sun and cuts. They climbed the mountain together, each carrying their own backpacks and walking sticks, without any complaints.
"There are hallucinogenic mushrooms here." Qiao Shengli walked and walked, suddenly pointed to the side of the road, and then used her trekking pole to dig out a red umbrella from the side of the tree in a few seconds.
"They're on the roadside, no wonder they want to get rich from mushrooms." Wang Chuanxing immediately stepped forward to take pictures.
"The climate conditions are the most important." Su Lei said, "For example, on the road from Lijiang to XX Mountain, there are wild marijuana forests everywhere. The local government has cleared them many times but to no avail. The growing conditions are too good. The Americans spend a lot of money to build soilless marijuana sheds, but here they grow like thin bamboos in the open air, densely packed in clumps."
"It's a little different from American marijuana, right?" Wang Chuanxing was somewhat curious.
Su Lei smiled mysteriously, and then said: "Some are naturally different from those in the United States."
Wang Chuanxing is also an experienced criminal policeman. He recognized it immediately after hearing it: "Are there some that are the same?"
Qiao Shengli is more lively and said with a smile: "Some of our varieties are quite popular abroad."
Su Lei cleared her throat and said, "First of all, although cannabis is divided into two subspecies, the original subspecies and the Indian cannabis subspecies, what has been cultivated in our country for a long time has also been the original subspecies. But from a biological point of view, the original subspecies and the Indian cannabis subspecies can be easily hybridized. Moreover, the content of tetrahydrocannabinol in these two subspecies is also unstable, so..."
"Can foreigners bring in foreign seeds?" Wang Chuanxing blurted out.
Su Lei was stunned for a moment, and said: "I haven't thought about this, but it is true that the cannabis subspecies in our country have been contaminated a long time ago. Yunnong University has done research in this area, and I just saw... Xiao Qiao on the road?"
Her student Qiao Shengli immediately took out her phone, flipped through it, and said, "It's the article by Chen Xuan, "Study on the Chemotypes and Genotypes of Cannabinoids in Cannabis Varieties from Farmers in Southern Yunnan" was published in the Southwest Botanical Journal. The core of the study was a group of cannabis varieties from a farmer in southern Yunnan, and the tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol in 21 individual plants were tested. The result was that all 21 individual plants contained tetrahydrocannabinol, with a content between 0.07% and 1.35%. Three of them exceeded 1%."
Wang Chuanxing frowned: "I did some research a few days ago. THC content below 0.3% is considered industrial hemp, right? THC content above 1% is already at the level of drug marijuana that can be sold in Europe and the United States?"
"Industrial hemp..." Su Lei shook her head and said, "1% is definitely not acceptable."
Wang Chuanxing thought: "As long as the foreigners try a few more times, they can easily find more than 1% of the individual plants."
"Well, they can share it with each other." Qiao Shengli said, "When the cannabis blooms, they will go to the mountains with sickles and backpacks to harvest it themselves. This is because the THC content of female inflorescences is higher. Moreover, they care about this abroad because the cost of planting is high and they have to pay for it all. If it is free cannabis, smoking two more won't make a difference."
"Can this also bring about miracles with great strength?" Wang Chuanxing understood a little.
Qiao Shengli said: "So the concept of industrial hemp was created. The number 0.3% or 0.2% is meaningless. For marijuana smokers, it just means the cigarette is thicker."
"But the one you just mentioned has a content of a few tenths of a percent, right? This kind of thing needs to be rolled into the thickness of a cigar."
Su Lei then followed up, "Because the people who created the concept of industrial hemp planted hemp for the purpose of extracting cannabidiol. Tetrahydrocannabinol is hallucinogenic, and cannabidiol can be used for medical purposes. Its price is relatively high abroad. But in fact, because tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol are both derived from the same precursor substance, called cannabigerol, and are catalyzed by different enzymes, the two are positively correlated. Hemp with a tetrahydrocannabinol content of 0.07% or even lower will also have a cannabidiol content close to 0, so planting industrial hemp is unprofitable."
“So we need to look for low-THC, high-CBD cannabis?”
"The principle of industrial hemp is like this. But the relationship between the two is Y=0.648X-0.025, which is a regression equation. The standard of 0.03% or 0.02% is as low as possible." Su Lei paused, and then said: "So, the current domestic policy on industrial hemp is tightened across the board."
"This mushroom should also be tightened." Wang Chuanxing looked at the path ahead with resentment. The mountains here are tall and majestic, and it is a typical case of "looking at the mountain and running the horse to death".
blah blah...
The walkie-talkie on Jiang Yuan's waist rang.
"Captain Jiang, people on the mountain must have sensed something was wrong and started mobilizing." The report came from the drone operating team at the foot of the mountain.
Jiang Yuan looked at the time: "It's been half an hour, and they're just starting to mobilize?"
"From what we saw from the air, when they first saw our drone, someone should have reported it, but the response was very slow and many people didn't seem to care much."
"Got it." Jiang Yuan ended the call, then switched the intercom to Channel 1 and said, "Attention all units, the gang riding on the mountain stronghold may escape, so be careful about how to fight back."
"receive."
"Roger that!"
Several teams responded in turn with high morale.
This kind of activity that can arrest hundreds of people at a time is still very rare. Don't ask how big the case is or how deep the involvement is. It is an organized crime of drug users and dealers, and its size and number of people are among the top in the country.
